All of this could have been avoided by simply calling the lender, or a records check. A little due diligence and proper delegation was needed. But, Mr Katzenberg found his realm of responsibility had dramatically increased. He now had to strong-arm the DC Board who were proving to be a handful, asking questions and demanding answers. Mr. Louis Beverly and Ms. Donna Hanks were/are a sideshow, a little street theatre and a not so subtle warning to the Obama Administration to get in line. If it were not for the fact that cameras were out and people have started to ask: why is it that all the little people in ACORN get thrown under the bus? ACORN would not help them anymore than they help the pole workers that they sacrifice every election cycle. It is money from the Obama Administration that they are after.

Everything is backwards in your world; Taxes are unconstitutional (how in the world you ever came to that conclusion Im sure is beyond the best psychiatric medicine can fix) yet free room and board (LUXURY room & board) and a pile of UNEARNED no actually EXTORTED money is essential... ?? Know whats really & painfully ironic... those taxes that you call unconstitutional are now funding your messiah saint obama's so called 'stimulus' program which has now more than tripled the national debt and has still not shown how it will produce any where near the amount of jobs this country needs to get back on its feet and has economists even democrats calling it a bad idea as well as giving it labels like pork-laden and ill-conceived. So who are the victims here sam my man? Not the democrats that helped create this fraudulent monstrosity of kickbacks and undeserved handouts! Not the ACORN con artists that have managed to brainwash enough fools in the cities that they ply there illegitimate trade in under the mask of rebellious self-righteous public aid. So who are the real victims then? Basically everyone that is left.. everyone that is apart from the criminals, the cheaters, the unscrupulous political activists, the greedy power hungry unions and their equally greedy partners in the finance industry. IOW, US... decent hard working Americans that just want a fair piece of the pie we have all been busting our asses working for every day. No, to the current crop of crooks that are in charge were all just a bunch of suckers to con, soak off of and dump in the gutter when their done. Amazing how well the old carrot and stick approach still works. You'd think humans would have taken a lesson from those wily rabbits we hunt and learned by now.

It may seem ironic that a slumlord is an ACORN activist. But ACORN darling Obama's rather meager legal career was spent as a mouthpiece for Chicago slumlords. His 'boneheaded' deal with influence peddler/slimelord Tony Rezko may have hinted at the true nature of the New Messiah. Big Louie seems to have perfected the art of gaming what passes for a justice system in Baltimore.

THis is simple thuggery, an in your face demand for special treatment which carries the implication of a threat of violence if their demands are not met. They are finding women to use as poster children so that their intimidating tactics are ameliorated on the surface, but the men behind the tactics are all too vivid and frightening. There is little distance between this activity and the next step, Mugabe thugs raping and murdering the occupants of the property Mugabe "gave" to them. God help this country, and thank goodness the police are still doing their jobs in some towns. This stuff simply cannot stand in a free society.

This guy is totally misrepresenting himself. He tells reporters that he’s a homeowner facing eviction next month. It appears the eviction he’s talking about is on one of his rental properties, not his home. According to a quote on 1/09/07 Mr. Beverly states that he owns 15 properties around town (I found six houses associated with him). Not quite a victim!Based on the civil cases he’s had over the years (failure to maintain property, dumping, building not fit for human) he appears to be a slum-lord. The property he has currently in foreclosure has been going on since March 2007 and was sold 11/17/08 to a man named Maurice Bost. It’s unfortunate that Mr. Bost chose to purchase a home owned by Mr. Beverly as on February 13, 2009 charges were filed against Louis Beverly for 2nd degree Assault and destruction of property by Mr. Bost. It seems that Louis Beverly is willing to go farther than just “civil unrest”, he’s willing to attack. Which is a little frightening since Mr. Beverly was charged in 1992 with Battery, Assault, Possession of handgun and Possession of deadly weapon with intent to injure. He also had a Peace Order issued against him on 9/25/06. The good news is Mr. Beverly was charged with 4th degree Burglary and Malicious Destruction of Property in connection with the break-in associated with Donna Hanks. This is the guy that ACORN chooses to be their Co-Chair of the Baltimore ACORN Foreclosure Fighters? It seems he much better qualified to be a voter registration employee based on their employees during the election or do they choose people with these types of backgrounds to represent them since most law-abiding citizens wouldn't break into homes?
